I would think that one of the reasons someone has not petitioned the BATFE to legalize the use of a stock on a short barreled Luger is that anyone that has been collecting Lugers with the requisite knowledge to determine model type, variations and authenticity knows that short barreled Lugers were not issued with stocks. Collectors are not interested in non-authentic combinations. The Lugers that have been exempt, e.g. LP08s, Navys, Carbines, and some shortbarreled Lugers with rare limited production stocks such as Ideal etc., have considerable intrinsic value and were issued or originally sold with stocks, therefore possession of these historically correct examples is logical. I have little sympathy for shooters who lament that they can’t attach a stock to their short barreled Luger. If you can’t stand on your hind legs and shoot a pistol as a handgun, you probably should have bought a rifle in the first place.
